United States, Pe... "Using unique design and millennium technology, our first product has been issued PATENT NUMBER 5920932. The POSITION POSITIVE SLEEP SYSTEM has applied millennium technology to a time tested method to help people achieve a more comfortable and restful night sleep. Positional sleep aids is a trend that is receiving more and more notice from the medical community. The POSITION POSITIVE SLEEP SYSTEM is on the cutting edge of this technology with products that are designed, developed and priced for mass marketing. In the information that follows, the reader will get a better and clearer understanding as to the scope and the breadth of our company and the potential returns that are available to our partners. Trying to predict the sales and future of the Internet seems fruitless. This will be a major area of growth of the Company. As the direct marketing effort grew (TV infomercials, direct response commercials, catalogue, direct mail, TV shopping networks) to over $650 billion dollars the Internet is slowly eroding away at those sales figures. Statistics and predictions of the growth of Internet commerce are changing daily. $1 Billion in sales is just around the corner, $10 Billion is next, and $100 Billion is not far behind. Who would have thought those books, CD's, toys, etc. would be good products to sell over the Internet, only an innovator. It shows, however, that good products will sell over non-traditional mediums as long as they get the proper exposure. It has taken small company sales to global proportions and has made it much easier for a young and growing company to compete and prosper in the global economy. There is a large market for The POSITION POSITIVE SLEEP SYSTEM especially at an attractive and affordable price. Our profit structure makes our accountants ecstatic. With our multifaceted advertising campaign (infomercials and direct response commercials, e-mail and Internet web site, family and friends discounts) we will reach the consumer and introduce them to the benefits of our unique and diversified product line. Sleep aids account for over $500,000,000 per year according to MSNBC, July 4, 1998. Traditional pillow sales are over $5 billion per year with new designs of pillows (made from various materials) selling over $300,000,000 per year. This shows a large percentage of the consumers are not happy with their current sleeping pillow. They are having trouble sleeping and there is a large market for new and revolutionary products. The nature of The POSITION POSITIVE PILLOW INSERT lends itself to comfort and proper support of the head and neck. It improves the comfort and quality of sleep. The renewable insert when combined with a traditional pillow forms a unique and simplistic anti-snoring device. The revolutionary design and ease of automation of The POSITION POSITIVE PILLOW CASE will enable us to produce millions and millions of pillow cases with only a minimal amount of labor. The above factors will allow us to successfully compete in the ""traditional"" bedding industry. Development of our second product has just been completed, the next generation of sleep related products. THE KANGAROO PILLOW, the wonder from down under your head, a complete pillow that has a renewable and replaceable comfort zone and will be sized as a standard size pillow. It will be presented to the market without anti-snoring claims until our medical documentation can be established. Additional products currently in the development stage that will compliment the product line are: A vertical opening pillow case that will house The POSITION POSITIVE PILLOW INSERT in a new way, and traditional size pillow cases with a horizontal opening that will define the market by using automation to produce. Only The POSITION POSITIVE SLEEP SYSTEM product line will be able to provide a removable and replaceable insert that the consumer can use to renew and revitalize their sleeping pillow. Our management team consists of the inventor (who currently has a backlog of products for introduction) and companies and individuals that have been in the business and the market for many years. The manufacturer will supply retail ready product and handle international sales and distribution. The media consultant will provide an Internet web site and an advertising campaign that includes web promotion, direct response commercials, PR, infomercials and print ads. Sales will be handled by a marketing firm with over 100 representatives that specializes in new product introduction to mass retailers. Our legal and financial consultants have years of related experience. At the present time we have completed market research, product development, manufacturing work flow analysis, have been approved our first US Patent, completed testing and selection of raw materials, and have FDA marketing approval. We are ready to formalize plans to begin production and to introduce The POSITION POSITIVE SLEEP SYSTEM. However, we do not have access to sufficient funds to progress farther in bringing the product to market. This could be a most interesting and profitable opportunity for you. Our multi-faceted marketing strategy, coupled with the design nature of the existing and proposed products, will take a consumer and make them a life long customer of the company. This will be accomplished by keeping in close contact with the customer after the initial purchase of any one of our products. The design nature of the products require that the renewable and replaceable part be ideally changed on a nine to twelve month basis. The Company will control the distribution of these products for as long as it is feasible. With this yearly contact with the customer we will be able to promote other products in The POSITION POSITIVE SLEEP SYSTEM's product line. Not only will we be developing our customer base but we will be expanding the entire base of the industry. At the present time the consumers currently purchase a sleep related products two to three times in their life time. By educating the consumer to the need for their sleep related products to maintain their original shape and consistence the market will expand. With the protection of the USPTO we will have the advantage of blocking the competition from engaging in the market niche that we are developing. With the pricing we have set up the renewable and replaceable component will be priced so advantageously that it will be senseless for the customer not to just purchase the replacement part rather than to purchase a whole new product from a competitor. The total project from the conception to the product on the market has a cost of $3,830,000. The project will require an influx of $3,500,000 to make the splash in the market that we have been advised is necessary. This will also allow for cash flow to finance the growth of the POSITION POSITIVE SLEEP SYSTEM. The explosive growth of the POSITION POSITIVE SLEEP SYSTEM will only be limited by the ability to have enough product on hand for the demand that will be evident. Depending on the level of investment and the desires of the investors we are able to restructure the offering to meet those needs. Percentage of ownership, return on investment, exit strategy, etc. are all negotiable.
